The Wrong Guy is Claudia Teal Whitsitt’s second novel. It is set against the tainted campus atmosphere of Eastern Michigan University just after the arrest of real life serial killer, John Norman Collins. In August of 1969, less than a month after Collins was charged with the murder of an EMU coed, Whitsitt’s heroine, Katie Hayes, must adjust to freshman life away from home and reconcile her Catholic upbringing with the temptations of university life.
Whitsitt
accurately depicts campus culture as she takes her heroine through the ups and
downs of dormitory living and adjusting to her new life of freedom and
possibility, juxtaposed against her inhibitions and keen sense of guilt-driven family
responsibility.
Six months
into the school year as Katie navigates her way through her first serious romance, an
emergency calls her home. The unexpected trip turns her life and the vision she
has created for herself upside down.
Once back at
school and wrestling with her own demons, the campus is again terrorized by the
abduction of one coed and the murder of another. Katie is left to wonder: Did
the police arrest the wrong guy for the Ypsilanti coed killings?
Claudia
Whitsitt creates several levels of tension and layers the suspense in this fast-moving
and compelling novel. The Wrong Guy
will resonate with any woman who ever dreaded fallout from a difficult
relationship.
